How to enter cheats in Dead Space
PC / Xbox 360 / PS3
- Pause the game.
- Press the button sequence from the table.
- PC requires an Xbox 360 controller to be connected.
Do cheats disable achievements in Dead Space?
No. GamesRadar+ says the codes do not affect achievements, so you can use them on an Xbox 360 or PC save that is still earning them. The limit that does apply is that each credit and power node code works only once per playthrough. GamesRadar+: Dead Space cheats
Compatibility notes
Which releases these codes apply to, and where one behaves differently. Each note links to the source that documents it.
- PC GamesRadar+ prints a single list for Xbox and PC using the X and Y face buttons, so on PC the codes are entered on a controller rather than typed. GamesRadar+: Dead Space cheats
- PS3 Stasis refill GamesRadar+ prints the PS3 Stasis refill as Triangle, Square, Triangle, Triangle, Square, Triangle, while Cheat Happens and TheGamer give the five-button sequence shown in the table. GamesRadar+: Dead Space cheats
- Refill oxygen TheGamer adds an extra X (Square) at the start of the oxygen code. GamesRadar+ and Cheat Happens both print the five-button version used here. TheGamer: Every Dead Space Cheat
- All platforms Cheat Happens says you pause with Start before entering a code, and a sound confirms that the code was accepted. Cheat Happens: Dead Space Cheats and Codes for PlayStation 3
FAQ
How do you enter cheat codes in Dead Space?
Pause the game and press the button sequence from the table. On PC you need an Xbox 360 controller connected.
Is there a money cheat in Dead Space?
Yes. Codes give you 1,000, 2,000, 5,000 or 10,000 credits, but each one only works once per playthrough.
Do Dead Space cheats disable achievements?
No. You can use every cheat code without losing Achievements or Trophies.
Can you reuse the credit and power node codes?
No, each one only works once per playthrough. The oxygen and Stasis refill codes can be used as many times as you want.
Does the original Dead Space have a controller-only cheat system on PC?
Yes. The PC version uses the same button codes as Xbox 360, so you need an Xbox 360 controller plugged in to enter them.
Are there more Dead Space cheat codes than these eight?
The sources list only these eight pause-menu codes. Other things that circulate are unlockables earned by finishing the game, such as Impossible difficulty, the Military Suit and New Game+, and PC trainers, which are not built-in cheats.
